Easter - One Love

Up, Down.

Playing For Change - One Love at Bob Marley, and at YouTube (no sermonette).

... philosophy of music
is been a great power
power to bring peace
and to get enlightenment
because it is sort of meditation
because you need a lot of dedication
in order to bring the music to great art
when there is a great art
there is always heaven

that is why we believe that through music
if you practice a lot
you meditate on it
you feel nothing else than peace
so we believe that
through music we can get enlightenment



One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
Let's get together and feel all right.
One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.

As it was in the beginning,
So shall be the end.
Let's get together and feel all right.

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks.
There is one question I'd really love to ask.
Is there a place for those hopeless sinners,
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own?

One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
[Zulu: thando olu-lodwa
masi-be-sonke, masi-be-sonke
ah masi-hlan-gan-eni-sonke,
masi-hlan-gan-eni-sonke sibe-mun-ye.]

I want to feel alright.
One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
Come on,
Let's get together and feel all right.

As it was in the beginning,
So shall it be in the end.

One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
[Zulu: thando olu-lodwa
masi-be-sonke, masi-be-sonke
ah masi-hlan-gan-eni-sonke,
masi-hlan-gan-eni-sonke sibe-mun-ye.]

One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
Let's get together and feel all right.

Let's join together to fight this holy Armageddon.
When the Man comes there will be no, no doom.
Have pity on those whose chances grow bitter.
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of creation.

We got one love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.

One love, one heart,
Let's get together and feel all right.
[Zulu: thando olu-lodwa
masi-be-sonke, masi-be-sonke
ah masi-hlan-gan-eni-sonke,
masi-hlan-gan-eni-sonke sibe-mun-ye.]
